Actually, they have noting in common. However, milk may help our lovely plants in terms of disease protection, additional nutrition, and beautifully shiny leaves.
To Avoid Disease
Many people have problems with some plants to grow, even though they are easy to grow, because the plants can sometimes be plagued with disease and parasites. Usually, we don`t want to use any kind of chemicals to treat our plants, especially indoors plants.
There are some organic types of insecticides on the market, but you may wish to try something less expensive. So, in this case you can mix non-fat powdered milk with the water and spray it on your orchids. It should be about four parts water and one part milk. This will give you a twenty percent solution.
Fertilization in Plants
Many people use milk as a fertilizer for their orchids. They do not put it directly on the plant. A good way to apply it is with an empty milk container. It can be a jug or carton that has just been emptied. Place the water for your orchids in the container without rinsing it out. This will give you a slightly milky solution to water the plants with.
Beautiful Looking Plants
Many people use a product for leaf shine. It will make the plants look a little more vibrant and healthy. This is important if you are going to an orchid show with your plant. However, these products are usually forbidden at shows. You can use milk as a leaf shine. It will make them look good and protect them, at the same time.
To Sum Everything Up
As you can see, there are a few benefits to use milk for growing your indoor plants. But, please, do not overuse it.
Powdered milk and water is good for insects and fungus.
A small amount of milk in the water is good for fertilizing.
